@Chi Chi. Anytime you do a repair on textured walls and/or surfaces you have to re-do the texture after you do the repair on the surface. On textured surfaces its hard to hide small repairs. That’s why most (not all) people in the business absolutely hate textured popcorn or knockdown walls and ceilings unless they are doing the whole area over.
